Michelle Mantel, a former
Maccabi and national youth
champion. "It was a lot of fun
watching their matches. They
had good sportsmanship and
the tournament was run very
well."
Brad Shulman, in the boys'
13-14-year-old division, led
the way with two gold and
one silver medal. Shulman
combined with Todd
Stoneman to win the two-
player team title. Shulman
also teamed with Joshua
Jaffe of San Francisco to win
the doubles gold. Shulman
placed second in singles.
Stoneman added a bronze
medal in singles and teamed
with Steve Sampson to take
the silver in doubles.
Cheryl Collis earned a
bronze in the girls' 13-14
singles.
Rob Winer and Steve Katz
combined to win bronzes in
the boys' 15-16 doubles and
team events. Winer also took
a bronze in singles.
In her first try as coach on-
ly, rather than player-coach,
Mantel says it was not easy to
watch her players. "I was
more nervous than they were.
When they were playing their
matches and it was getting
close I'd start getting nervous,
sweating."
Mantel will likely coach the
team in 1990, with her
mother, Hedy, organizing the
table tennis tournament.
Detroit added five other
bronze medals, four by in-
dividuals. Eric Swartz took
two bronzes in wrestling in
the 185-pound individual and
team events. Wrestlers from
different cities were combin-
ed to form the teams.
Merrek Sakwa became the
first Detroiter to win a North
American games track
medal, earning a bronze in
the 3,000 meter run.
Jennifer Goldfarb took a
bronze in the girls' 15-16 ten-
nis singles. She and partner
Rona Fenton were quarter-
finalists in doubles.
Detroit earned a team
medal when the girls' softball
squad beat Cleveland, 10-3, to
win a bronze.
The soccer team lost a
double-overtime, 1-0, quarter-
final game to Boston. The
boys' softball team also lost in
the medal round, as did the
basketball squad, which fell
to eventual gold medal-
winning Los Angeles.
Neal Brand and David Got-
tesman both reached the
quarterfinals in racquetball.
Chicago also held a com-
munity 10,000-meter run to
commemorate the Israeli
athletes who were murdered
at the summer Olympics.
Although it was not part of
the Maccabi games, two
members of the Detroit team
competed and did well.
Kirsten Silverman earned a
medal for her sixth place
finish on the female side of
the event which was open to
all ages. Marc Harwin placed
12th among male finishers.
Although there were
transportation problems in
Chicago, Detroit delegation
head Jay Robinson feels "this
was a good games," adding,
"There's always glitches.
These are very, very difficult
to put on because you are
talking about a community
doing this thing. This is no
government;- there's no
government money. Our own
private Jewish community
decides to hold these games
and host all these kids .. .
"We can't do this any other
way. Somehow you get errors
or problems, like they had
some problems with their
bussing. In the final analysis,
you really have to shrug that
kind of stuff off."
The games ended with the
Maccabi flag being passed to
Detroit's delegation at the
Aug. 25 closing ceremonies.
The Detroiters who will
plan the 1990 games gained
valuable experience from see-
ing Chicago's efforts.
"They did some stuff that
we thought was excellent,"
says Robinson. "You gain a
different perspective. Also, for
us, holding it in '90, we had
a lot of people, adults, who
went through these games,
who are gonna be important
to our games here. They just
lived through one. On top of
the coaches and official
chaparones who were on our
delegation, we must've
had easily 125 parents who
were there. A number of them
came up to me and said 'O.K.,
Jay, I want to work on the '90
games? Those people are in-
valuable."
